"
"
Will
you
step
this
way
,
Mr
Stump
?
"
said
the
young
Irishman
,
rising
from
his
stool
,
and
proceeding
in
the
direction
of
the
door
.
The
hunter
followed
,
not
without
showing
some
surprise
at
the
abrupt
invitation
.
Maurice
conducted
his
visitor
round
to
the
rear
of
the
cabin
;
and
,
pointing
into
the
shed
,
inquired
--
"

"
The
unexpected
discovery
,
that
his
purpose
had
been
already
anticipated
by
the
capture
of
the
spotted
mustang
,
raised
the
spirits
of
the
old
hunter
to
a
high
pitch
of
excitement
.
They
were
further
elevated
by
a
portion
of
the
contents
of
the
demijohn
,
which
held
out
beyond
Phelim
's
expectations
:
giving
all
hands
an
appetising
"
nip
"
before
attacking
the
roast
turkey
,
with
another
go
each
to
wash
it
down
,
and
several
more
to
accompany
the
post-cenal
pipe
.
While
this
was
being
indulged
in
,
a
conversation
was
carried
on
;
the
themes
being
those
that
all
prairie
men
delight
to
talk
about
:
Indian
and
hunter
lore
.
As
Zeb
Stump
was
a
sort
of
living
encyclopaedia
of
the
latter
,
he
was
allowed
to
do
most
of
the
talking
;
and
he
did
it
in
such
a
fashion
as
to
draw
many
a
wondering
ejaculation
,
from
the
tongue
of
the
astonished
Galwegian
.
